As a veteran of the lost cat search, I have to say that the point at which you think it's been way too long with no sign of the cat is the time when it's best to intensify the search. They tend to "lay low" for a week or two at first, then start making neighborhood appearances. Our lost cat didn't make her first reappearance for 17 days.

That is so sad. I hope Kitty will show up at her new home in Alameda.
Moving is a challenge for everyone, even the pets !
